By segmenting and searching for keywords based on specific countries, you can be sure you’re targeting the right keywords, and getting the right message across to your customers.

The “Filter Keywords” section allows you to do this with low, medium or high check boxes. You may find that by targeting common miss-spellings of certain words your can get great return at a really low cost. Using this tool can give you a great idea of the most common miss-spellings of your keywords.
